              Top notch high-quality all the way around. when I go camping I’m surrounded by tents that are made in China. I am proud to run this tent made in the USA.

              My nomad "She-shed"

              Bought a Factory 2nd Compact - LOVE IT! Being a sewing person myself, i carefully examined all the stitching, hardware, and fabric. Top grade materials all around, Consistent, secure stitching. (i could not flind my tent's "flaw") A lot of care has gone into designing this tent, with chainstitch and bias-cut fabrics on parts that need to stretch, and lockstitch with plenty of reinforcement where it needs to be stable. I winter in the desert near Yuma AZ with my partner, an area notorious for high winds. I like to have my own private space outside the RV for napping, reading, crafts. I'd noticed these canvas tents with the bar across the top in previous years here, the ony ones standing after a storm. The fancy CLAM tents i've been seeing all seem to collapse, the familiar ripstop nylon dome and cabin tents flap themselves to death, shred fabric and break poles. THe dumpsters are full of them at the end of the season. After a little research i found SPRINGBAR and decided to go for it. Couldn't be happier. In the Summer i live in Oregon; i car camp in my 1962 Volvo sedan, and visit with friends and go to festivals. Looking forward to having the COMPACT along for the fun this year! I'll be making a groundsheet and stormfly for it on my 1892 treadle Davis Needle Feed sewing machine. Thank you SPRINGBAR!!!!

              Great tents, bought 2 compacts and giving one to my brother as a gift. American made and tough as nails, you really cant go wrong with any of the models in the lineup.
